CG - Trump was the catalyst for the retail investor to go ALL IN. The YTD performance in the F.A.N.G. stocks is all one needs to see. Retail flocks to glamour. We know what that means longer term. But can it end in March?

Regarding Infrastructure plans. I would be a happy man if the only thing DJT did was to ensure they fix the potholes on the Southfield Freeway over here in Southfield, MI. Destroyed/Destroying my car.

I think IRX is key here, its at super long term resistance, if it strongly breaks thru current levels rates are headed way higher. If it rejects again the Fed may be going negative over the next few years, possibly as far as -1.75% or -2%--and then we will break out to 8-12%.

With a few exceptions the market looks strong as an Ox. The DJT just won't stop. Apparently DJT is bullish for the DJT! If we don't turn around in the next couple of weeks, I'm throwing in the towel. SPXL anyone?

Well, that means that "The State of California" - a Corporate fictious entity; just joined the ranks of "Illegal Tax Protestors". LOL

The State of California is tempting fate - ala the last War Between The States.

As for "Millennium; Winners and Losers in the Coming Order"

"Sustainability is an active condition of problem solving, not a passive consequence of consuming less."

What happens when the electrical system and thus the sewage treatment plants go down? WHY- it's a return to the good old days of Plagues and Epidemics which will control the Human population on this Planet.

"The third opportunity for government policy manipulation comes with the continued influx of illegal aliens. John Tanton, chairman of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) and leading thinker on illegal immigration, summarizes the findings of studies of the beneficiaries by saying that the only Americans who benefit are business interests that employ illegals at low wages.[26] That is all![27] In this country, 75 percent of Hispanics approve of illegal immigration control and of national identification cards.[28] This is the group that the Catholic hierarchy said opposed control. (Of course, the Church was only speaking “on behalf of” Hispanics all along.)

No one benefits except some often unscrupulous business interests and the Catholic hierarchy (90 percent of all illegal aliens are Catho­lic). No illegal immigration control organizations ever mention opposi­tion by the hierarchy—another example of the power of censorship.

If illegal aliens were comprised of other religious groups, we prob­ably would have little illegal immigration control problems in the United States. How does the Church justify this blatantly anti-American activity of creating a sanctuary in America for Catholic il­legal aliens from Latin America?

Officially one-quarter of the people in the Catholic Church in the United States are Hispanic. However, according to Church spokesman the Reverend Raymond G. Schutte, a Benedictine, in reality almost 40 percent of our country’s Catholics are Spanish-speaking, and their number will rise to 50 percent by 1990[29]—only six years from now—due mostly to illegal immigration."
